During the "Book Machine" event at the George R. Brown Convention Center, each of the hundred will have a three-and-a-half-hour appointment with a designer. The finished product will be printed and delivered the next day, and available for purchase worldwide through onestar.com.

How can you get in on this? "You don't have to be asked," says Devon Britt-Darby, spokesman for the University of Houston's Blaffer Art Museum, which is presenting the event. "You don't have to be approved by anyone. You just sign up. It's as democratic as it gets."

To sign up -- or just get more information -- go to the Blaffer's "Book Machine" page.
